As you might recall, Norman Osborn is dying in the first film and he's desperately searching for a cure. Whether or not said "cure" will turn him into the Green Goblin in this movie has yet to be confirmed. The website says, "It is unclear whether Cooper will make his villainous turn in this film or in a sequel. Osborn starts out as a mentor to the superhero before turning bad."

Personally, I was rooting for Tommy Lee Jones. Viners, do you think Cooper's a good choice for the classic villain? I really hope his transformation is saved for the third film because this one is already packed with characters (Rhino, Electro, MJ, Harry!).

I actually like the pattern that comic book movies are taking lately with having the most famous villain appear in the second movie. It worked for the Dark Knight with the Joker, and it'll work with Man of Steel for Lex Luthor

So now we have rumors/confirmations on Electro, Rhino, Morbius, Black Cat, Venom, Chameleon, Mysterio (look at the moon and the clouds in the lost shot of the first movie before the credits roll. May not be intentionally but they certainly made it look like a hint at Mysterio) and Goblin. I would still bet money that 1). Most of these characters are shown pre transformation, 2.) Goblin and the Death of Gwen Stacy will wait till the third movie, and 3.) There will be more than three movies.

Anyways, what's with all of these complaints that people don't want to see Goblin again? How is reusing a villain considered just doing the same thing over and over again? Do you really think Gobby only has one story to be told? (He has more... like the Death of Gwen Stacy, one of the most famous comic book stories ever told) Can you really not enjoy seeing a character in more than one movie? Because Spidey's about to be in his fifth and sixth. Were the last three Spider-Man films the same as the first because they all had Spider-Man in them? You see how this complaint makes no sense, right?
